The Premier League clash between Fulham and Liverpool on Sunday was held up moments before kick-off after a medical emergency occurred at Craven Cottage. Originally scheduled to begin at 3 pm GMT, the referee’s whistle was pushed back by 15 minutes, with the match now set to start at 3:15 pm.
Fulham officially communicated the delay on social media, explaining that urgent medical attention was required at the ground, prompting the brief postponement. Both teams were kept waiting as medical personnel attended to the situation before play could safely go ahead.
Supporters inside the stadium were also informed of the change, with announcements and stadium displays noting the delayed kick-off. Officials have not provided further details about the nature of the emergency, but the minor schedule shift ensured the fixture could still take place later in the afternoon.
